Episode 105: The hardware and design processes that drive the video game industry.

This week our friend Sam "RetroReject" Hayes fills in for Dustin who is again off galivanting around the Forgotten Realms. We discuss the hardware that has powered the video game industry, from the Golden Age of Arcades, through the Video Game Crash of 1983, the Console Wars, the transition to CD-ROM format, and other pivotal moments in video game history. Note: We're sorry about the mic doubling that starts popping up 30ish minutes in... Definitely going to troubleshoot that this week.
